Jay Cutler’s Wife Kristin Cavallari Cutler

Jay Cutler’s wife Kristin Cutler was formerly Kristin Cavallari, a scripted-reality television star on both Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County and The Hills. Cutler is a quarterback and 126 million-dollar man who generally just has a cloud follow him and his reputation around.

First off, Jay Cutler’s wife Kristin is known far and wide for being on those two shows (both of which seem like the absolute bottom of the barrel of reality television). The whole thing is scripted and made up– to the point where the love triangles, personas, and plotlines are all not actually real. There was a skit that Comedy Bang Bang did recently about this very subject: the unreality of reality television. In this segment called “Date-zaster,” they set up a blind date to go terribly wrong, but they overproduce it to the point where it actually becomes a traditional television comedy (featuring Weird Al Yankovic). This skit/segment is exactly what Jay’s wife Kristin Cutler was talking about when she revealed how fake her old show The Hills was. It may be absolute trash, but it’s sort of keen production. Her producers would actually text them lines. I’m sure I would loathe watching it, but hey– it got ratings.

Now then, on to Kristin’s husband for a moment. David Fleming wrote a nice piece for ESPN saying this of Jay Cutler:

You might think, in a season opener at home against the bottom-feeding Bills, that a newly minted, $126 million, franchise quarterback with a single career playoff win who has had an entire franchise ripped apart and rebuilt to his exact specifications would, maybe, be to blame for throwing two picks that led to 10 easy points for Buffalo in a shocking 23-20 overtime loss. And, like I said, you’d be wrong. Nothing is ever Blameless Jay’s fault.

Ouch! Seriously. Double-ouch. And aside from whatever you’ve read and heard about this guy, there was also the ever-so-shitty way he got engaged to his wife Kristin Cutler back when she was Kristin Cavallari. According to her, he casually asked if they should get married while in an airport, and she said she thought that’d be cool. Then, she got the ring in the mail, and she said she waited a few weeks before she put it on. This is all came after they broke up for a few months. I find it all pretty fascinating. Part of me wonders what hanging out with these people would be like. They sort of both seem horrible and yet strangely compelling.

Can’t speak for her, but from my (limited) experience, Cutler is actually a pretty decent guy. I took my nephew to Bears training camp a couple years ago. After practice, there is a holding area for kids to get players autographs. Devin Hester got a ride in the locker room on a golf cart, head down, helmet on to avoid people. Julius Peppers used a separate exit front he practice fields to avoid everyone. Jay Cutler stayed around and signed every autograph requested of him. He spoke to my nephew for a good 10 minutes about football, what position he wants to play, etc. Then the good stuff happened. Next to my nephew were two wheelchair bound kids with moderate to severe physical and developmental issues. Cutler signed autographs for them, gave them his cleats and practice jersey, took pictures, and then went in the locker room to get Brandon Marshall, Alshon Jeffery, Matt Forte, etc, to come out and sign and take pictures with these two kids. I thought it was a very cool, touching thing and uttered under my breath “And everyone thinks he’s a total dick” not knowing that the two people standing to my side were the kids’ parents. The mother was in tears and said “That breaks my heart. We’ve been lucky to have some pretty special experiences for my boys. No one has ever been as genuine and generous to my boys as Jay Cutler has been today.”

I won’t argue that he doesn’t have unflattering moments, but Jay Cutler isn’t a total dick…
